Abstract:
Gastric motility is controlled by gastric myoelectrical activity, which propagates from the proximal body to the distal antrum at a frequency of 3 cycles per minute(cpm). Peritoneal infusion of dialysate may influence on gastric motility in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis(CAPD) patients. To investigate the concentration of dialysate affects the gastric myoelectrical activity in CAPD patients, we performed electrogastrographic studies(EGG) in 13 non-diabetic CAPD patients. EGG was measured noninvasively using abdominal surface electrodes at the fasting state at empty and 2 hours after 1.5% and 4.25% 2,000mL dialysate, respectively. The dominant power (DP) and the percentage of normal slow-wave frequency(NSWF) had significantly decreased after 4.25 % infusion than the baseline. Tachygastria had significantly increased after 4.25% infusion. Changes in the gastric myoelectrical activity after 1.5% was less prominent than that of 4.25%. In conclusion, peritoneal dialysis may influence on gastric myoelectrical activity and higher osmolar solution may more aggrevate gastric myoelectrical activity than lower one.
